pulpwood
Future paper fiber
Pulpwood is timber harvested specifically for making paper pulp—typically small-diameter, fast-growing trees like pine, spruce, or poplar.
The wood is chipped and chemically processed to extract cellulose fibers.
Pulpwood represents the lowest-value timber category, with larger or straighter trees reserved for lumber: Most of the stand was only good for pulpwood.
